“We used to dim the lights, close the blinds, and pray the projector bulb wouldn’t die mid-presentation. Now? We just tap the screen and go live.”
— Emma W., IT Director, Techspace Group
From old-school projectors to crystal-clear LED walls, the way we present ideas in a room has changed dramatically—and EnvisionScreen is at the center of that evolution.
But with so many options—COB LED display, ultra-short-throw projector, motorized projector screen—what should businesses actually choose?
This article breaks it down in a human way—no jargon, just answers.
So… What Exactly Is a COB LED Display?
Let’s start with what’s turning heads lately: COB LED displays (short for Chip-On-Board). Instead of sticking LED bulbs onto boards, COB fuses them directly onto a panel. That means tighter pixels, brighter visuals, and one seriously sleek screen.
If you’ve walked into a high-end conference room lately and thought “wow, this screen looks like an iPhone on steroids,” it was probably COB LED.
✅ Perfect for: Bright spaces, high-end boardrooms, clients you want to impress
Low maintenance: No bulbs to burn out, no filters to clean
Real-world impact: Better attention, better memory retention, better meetings
But Aren’t Projectors Still Around?
Absolutely. In fact, ultra-short-throw projectors are quietly making a comeback.
The new generation of projectors doesn’t look like the clunky machines from a decade ago. These sit just inches from the wall and can cast huge, cinematic visuals without casting shadows. Pair them with a high-gain projector screen, and you’ve got a seriously impressive setup—at a fraction of the cost of LED.
✅ Great for: Medium-size meeting rooms, multi-purpose spaces, classrooms
Budget-friendly: Especially for large format visuals
Flexible installs: Works with existing room layouts
“We retrofitted 6 training rooms in 3 days—with no ceiling mounts. Game changer.”
— Carlos M., Facilities Manager, EdTechHub

What Are People Asking Online?
Q: Is LED really better than a projector in daylight?
A: Yes. COB LED screens cut through ambient light effortlessly. Projectors, even the best ones, will struggle without dimming the room.
Q: What’s the right screen size for my conference room?
A: Rule of thumb: for 20 people, aim for at least 100-inch diagonal. EnvisionScreen even offers custom calculators and planning guides.
Q: Is it worth spending more on LED?
A: If your room is used daily for pitches, strategy sessions, or hybrid meetings, yes. It’s a long-term investment in clarity and tech confidence.
